CSX named military-friendly employer for third consecutive year

CSX was recognized as the number two military-friendly employer on G.I. Jobs' 2013 Top 100 Military Friendly Employers ranking, making their mark on the list for the third consecutive year.

"We actively work to hire the best employees to serve our customers and that means recruiting U.S. military veterans with strong backgrounds in team environments, safety training and leadership skills," said Michael Ward, CSX chairman, president and chief executive officer. "As we prepare to celebrate Veterans Day, CSX is proud to support and employ the men and women who have defended and protected us."

This recognition celebrates CSX's ongoing commitment to support the U.S. military and its veterans, one in five CSX employees have served in the armed forces. In May, CSX was also honored as a Most Valuable Employer for Military by CivilianJobs.com.
